God’s Salvation Plan for Creation – 3

Scripture

“‘Well done, my good servant!’ his master replied. ‘Because you have been trustworthy in a very small matter, take charge of ten cities.’” Luke 19:17

Background

In the previous chapter, it was demonstrated that the present age—the age of chaos—is a divinely appointed season of testing. During this time, evil is permitted for a while, and souls are formed through the cultivation of patience and perseverance. It functions as a sieve, revealing those who genuinely love the truth and are prepared for what is to come. This age gives way to the coming millennium, inaugurated by Christ’s righteous rule, where justice, peace, and restoration prevail. Within this ordered world, higher virtues—empathy, discernment, and sacrificial love—are able to mature and flourish.

In this chapter, we will show how this sieving process unfolds. The millennium is preceded by an unprecedented season of upheaval—first through the events associated with the 6 trumpets, and then through those linked to the seventh trumpet which brought the seven bowls and the wars that follow. Though trumpets and the bowls unfold within a period of intense judgment, their purposes differ.

The events of the trumpets function to awaken, warn, and refine, shaking the human populace in order to prepare hearts for the coming millennial reign. In contrast, the events of the bowls represent final and decisive judgment which serves to remove those who are unwilling to live in a culture under Christ’s righteous rule.

Observation & Truth

A good servant is one who remains unwavering despite peaks and valleys of life; being trustworthy to the end even in the smallest matters. And such will be entrusted with divine authority to reign with God over creation.

The Seven Trumpets

The purpose of the seven trumpets is to preach the gospel and the judgment to come. During this time, members of the 144,000 are commissioned to preach the gospel. At the same time, the witnesses are appointed to restrain the wicked, preventing them from obstructing or suppressing the proclamation of truth. Their role is both protective and confrontational, ensuring that the message of salvation continues unhindered. 

The ministry of the 144,000 conclude at the sounding of the seventh trumpet. With that trumpet, the era of punitive correction transitions into the phase of final judgment. Yet even then, God continues to open the door to those willing to turn from their wicked ways. Accordingly, the witnesses remain active, protecting new converts and upholding righteousness. These witnesses are given divine authority both to defend the repentant and to execute judgment against persistent wickedness.

The first trumpet releases an intense heat wave and fire that devastates property and vegetation. It does not directly result in the lost of human lives. It serves as a warning to awaken the people to the coming judgment.

The second trumpet brings fire, but of different origin. This time it rises from beneath the earth, casting destruction upon the sea. Ships are wrecked, and marine life perishes. Like the first trumpet, its aim is not primarily the immediate destruction of humanity, but to shake the nations and alert them that divine judgment is unfolding.

The third trumpet brings an angel that poisons the waters. Unlike the earlier trumpets, this one is intended to bring loss of human life, demonstrating that the warnings have intensified into tangible consequences. There is another purpose, to facilitate the departure of those predestined for the 3rd dimension. By contrast, those who are evil and predestined for the first dimension (hell) and second dimension (purgatory) are not removed at this stage. They are reserved for further punitive measures through the later trumpets and ultimately the judgments associated with the bowls. Nevertheless, though spared immediate removal, their suffering proves far more severe and prolonged than that experienced by those destined for the third dimension. In this way, the trumpet both separates and distinguishes. It at the same time advances each group according to its appointed end.

The fourth trumpet brings darkness upon the nations of the West. Dense rain clouds gather, obscuring the light of the sun, moon, and stars so that the earth is deprived of its natural illumination. What begins as dimming soon intensifies—torrential rains fall, rivers overflow, and widespread flooding follows, causing extensive damage to homes, infrastructure, and livelihoods. Unlike the third trumpet, which directly strikes human life, the fourth is directed primarily at property and stability. Its purpose is to dismantle material security and disrupt ordinary living, rendering life increasingly unbearable.

The fifth trumpet opens the bottomless pit, and from it emerge locusts commissioned to torment those who do not bear the seal of God upon their foreheads. For five months they inflict relentless anguish. Death does not come, though it is desperately desired; suffering is prolonged, and escape is withheld.

The purpose of this trumpet is both punitive and corrective. It targets those predestined for the first dimension (hell) and the second dimension (purgatory) so that they may repent. By this stage, those appointed for the third dimension are no longer present, having already departed. Those predestined for the fifth dimension (the kingdom of God) are distinguished by the seal of God upon their foreheads. They are the righteous, preserved amid the torment, marked for protection and separation.

The sixth trumpet releases four angels who unleash three devastating plagues, resulting in the death of a third of the human population. This trumpet is both punitive and corrective allowing repentance among those who survive. However, those who are not killed by the plagues remain hardened in their sins. By this time, the cumulative effects of the trumpets would mean that roughly half of the human population has vanished from the face of the earth. From now on, what follows is no longer punitive and corrective, but judgment giving no space for repentance.

Here is a categorization of the human populace based on their spiritual orientation and disposition:

Class A – The Fully God Oriented

•Those who love God with all their heart, mind, spirit, and might.

•They not only desire to live like Jesus in thought, action, and character, but have also overcome tribulations, persecutions, temptations, and the passions of earthly life.

•Their lives demonstrate consistent alignment with divine will and righteousness.

•Outcome: They are fully protected from all harm. They ascend directly into the kingdom before the millennium begins. Some will return to help rule over the earth in the millennium.

Class B – The Aspiring Godly

•Those attracted to God’s goodness but still struggling with earthly tribulations, temptations, and passions.

•They are willing to progress toward godliness and exhibit a sincere desire for spiritual growth.

•They are in a transitional phase, not yet perfected, but responsive to guidance and correction.

•Outcome: They are preserved and they enter the millennium in the original human form. The millennium becomes their refinement period, preparing them for eventual entrance into the fifth dimension.

Class C – The Self-Oriented

•Class C0 – The Self-Loving Seeker

•They love themselves above all but are trying to repent and pivot toward God amidst the entanglements of earthly life.

•Their alignment is tentative, but there is potential for spiritual turning.

•Outcome: A majority of them are removed from the earth during the fifth trumpet, transferred to the third dimension to face correction according to their life choices and spiritual condition.

•Class C1 – The Self-Loving Earthly

•They love themselves above all and are deeply invested in earthly comfort and materialistic pursuits.

•Their focus is primarily on worldly gain, and they resist spiritual correction unless it aligns with personal advantage.

•Outcome: A majority of them remain on earth longer than C0 people, requiring heavier punitive correction before removal at the sixth trumpet. They enter the second dimension (purgatory) to face corrective purification according to their life choices.

•Class C2 – The Self-Loving Oppressors

•They love themselves above all and actively oppose righteousness.

•They persecute the righteous, prey on the weak, and pursue lawlessness wherever possible.

•Their lives are characterized by deliberate rebellion, cruelty, and exploitation.

•Outcome: They suffer greatly but spared death during the trumpets. Their survival during the trumpets is not mercy but reservation for the final judgment of the seven bowls. Thereafter, they are transferred to the first dimension (hell) for eternal condemnation. 

The seventh trumpet heralds the rule of God over the universe. In defiance of this reign, the devil gathers the nations to resist God’s rule, consolidating rebellion for a final confrontation. 

All Class A and a majority of the 144,000 ascend into the kingdom of God, transitioning into the fullness of the kingdom of God (fifth to the seventh dimension). However, some members of the 144,000 will remain on the earth to enter the millennium. They are appointed to rule over the nations, establishing righteous order under the reign of God.

All Class B, together with selected Class C0/C1, remain on the earth at this stage to enter the millennium in their human form, where continued refinement and governance under divine rule will unfold. 

All Class C2 individuals also remain on the earth, but for a different purpose. They are not preserved for restoration; they are reserved for the judgments of the bowls.

Nevertheless, the proclamation of the gospel does not cease. Angels continue to declare the gospel and warn of impending judgment (Revelation 14:6–11). Following this, the seven bowls of judgment full of God’s wrath are poured out upon the wicked on earth to bring destruction during which members of the 144,000 who remained on earth will be fully protected.

The Seven Bowls

The first through the fifth bowls are not purposed to take away life, but to unleash judgments and suffering of a severity far exceeding that of the trumpets. The sixth bowl readies the nations for war against God. And the seventh bowl brings the culmination. It destroys the rebellious nations beginning with Babylon, the United States.

The first bowl brings malignant sores upon those who bear the mark of the beast and who worship his image. The judgment falls specifically upon those who have entered into conscious alignment with the beast’s authority and system to profit from his enterprise.

This beast is a businessman who capitalizes on the financial woes of the nation. At a time when the U.S. dollar has lost much of its value, he exploits the crisis to consolidate wealth and expand his power. Rather than serving the public good, he leverages instability for personal dominance.

His greatest sin is the oppression of the citizens. Through strategic acquisitions and coercive control, he gains a near-monopoly over food sources and essential goods, inflating prices and tightening his grip over the necessities of life. Survival itself becomes subject to his system.

Many, enticed by profit, invest in his enterprise and thereby participate in the machinery of exploitation. By aligning themselves financially and operationally with his structure, they become complicit in sustaining oppression. These who knowingly invest, support, and advance this system of injustice receive a mark—an outward sign of their inward allegiance and participation in the economy of oppression.

The first bowl targets this specific group; the worst of the worst – who bear the mark having aligned themselves with the system of exploitation and oppression. Hence, their condemnation is sealed; their names are written in hell. The malignant sores serve as outward signs of an hellish verdict.

The second bowl brings an ecological catastrophe affecting nations that allied with Babylon, the United States. The oceans are struck and marine life perishes. The third bowl extends the contamination beyond the oceans and into water sources meant for human consumption. Although they do not die from drinking the water, their severe affliction marks their appointment to hell.

The fourth bowl unleashes scorching heat upon the earth. Unlike earlier judgments that targeted specific groups or systems, this affliction extends globally, striking human bodies with relentless torment. The scorching heat does not aim to reform but to execute righteous judgment.

The fifth bowl targets the employees of the enterprise—those who actively serve and sustain the beast’s system. They are not merely passive participants but operational agents within the structure of exploitation and rebellion. Under this bowl, the environment surrounding the beast’s domain descends into profound darkness and anguish. Yet even in the midst of this affliction, they refuse to repent. Their persistence in defiance stands as the evidence of their just condemnation.

The sixth bowl opens the way for the nations to solidify their condemnation. The beast (the master mind) and the false prophet (the advocate) both politicians actively incite Babylon (the United States) and its allies to mobilize for war. The nations are led by their hubris, lawless and godless instincts. Their destruction is just.

The seventh bowl sees the decimation of Babylon and its allies. Babylon is struck at its core and split into three parts. Its wealth, technological dominance, and industrial capacity are shattered so completely that it can no longer produce or trade. The very foundations of its economic and strategic power disintegrate in a single sweeping judgment. 

In the same stroke, its allied nations are also decimated, though to varying degrees. What unfolds is a global war involving Babylon’s partners across the Middle East, the East, and Australasia. It is at the seventh bowl that those belonging to Class C2 are at last removed and transferred into hell. The conflict is not merely geopolitical; it becomes a theater in which all nations witness the manifested wrath and sovereign power of God. 

With the conclusion of this global confrontation, the beast and the false prophet are cast into the lake of fire. Satan is bound and confined to the abyss for a time. The systemic sources of evil; spiritual, political, and economic are removed from the earth.

In the aftermath, the earth is left cleansed of its entrenched evil structures and systemic evil. During this interval, God allows time for those of Class C0/C1 to repent, granting them a final opportunity to repent and be made fit to enter the millennium. 

After a few years, God returns to usher in the age of the millennium. A new era is inaugurated—no longer defined by organized rebellion or systemic corruption, but by ordered governance, restored justice, and righteous rule.

The Glorification of the Saints

After humanity has been appraised and dealt with, the time comes to reward and honor the saints. Every work whether done in public view or in private is brought into remembrance. Nothing hidden in righteousness is overlooked; nothing done in love is forgotten.

Their names and their faces are made known and declared across every civilization throughout the universe. What was once endured in quiet perseverance is now openly celebrated.

They will spend eternity with their loved ones; their family of faith bound not merely by memory, but by perfected joy and unity.

Some will be appointed as creators, entrusted with the formation of new planetary systems. Some will serve within the ministries of heaven. Others will be granted rulership over both the spirit realm and the material realm, exercising authority under God’s sovereign will.

All will be given the opportunity to fulfill the deepest aspirations placed within them by God—to explore, to build, to govern, to create, and to rejoice. In this way, they participate in the realization of the new heavens and the new earth, where righteousness dwells and divine purpose unfolds without end.

Application

Practice Active Discernment

Active discernment is the disciplined habit of interpreting world events through God’s revealed truth rather than through media narratives, public emotion, or personal fear.

It involves:

• Filtering crises (economic instability, wars, disasters) through scripture and communion with God.

• Refusing panic, outrage, or blind alignment with popular opinion.

• Asking, What is God exposing? What is He doing in the light of His character and prophecy?

• What should my response be?

Active discernment is not speculation—it is spiritual sobriety anchored in divine wisdom.

Reject Complicity in Oppressive Systems: 

Audit your professional and financial life. Avoid participating in or profiting from systems that exploit the weak or monopolize essentials (like food and housing). Being “trustworthy in a very small matter” involves maintaining integrity even when the prevailing economic system rewards cruelty or lawlessness.

Cultivate the “Overcomer” Mindset (Class A Preparation)

The overcomer mindset is the settled conviction that trials are preparation for rulership, not threats to survival.

It involves:

• Viewing tribulation as refinement rather than punishment.

• Refusing fear because identity is anchored in sonship.

• Conquering internal passions before confronting external opposition.

An overcomer does not seek escape from testing but mastery through it. This mindset produces spiritual authority. Those who overcome earthly passions and remain steadfast under tribulation are prepared for future governance under Christ’s reign.

Prayer

Lord, grant me discernment and courage during this testing. Refine my soul in small matters, preparing me for the glorious authority of Your kingdom.
